Extensive Review of The New MI40X CEP Training System by Ben Pakulsky
Note:
This is my own personal MI40X CEP Training System review and experience with the
program. If you’d like to visit the official website >> Click Here
Does MI40 Xtreme work? Is it really a good muscle program for building incredible muscle mass like it promises? Is the Cell Expansion Protocol and effective method? Here is a quick summary:
Who is the author? Ben Pakulski is the creator of MI40X, the new Xtreme muscle building program successor of the already popular MI40. He is a very successful top bodybuilding champion with an engaging and motivational style who takes pleasure in helping all guys and gals from all walks of life build muscle, burn fat and drastically rearrange their body composition, aside from competing in top contests. Just Google him, his name is all over the place. (Ben Pakulski - Wikipedia)
This workout program is really unique because it uses the CEP (Cell Expansion Protocol) principles for building muscles. With the help of CEP a person is able to build muscles faster because these workouts focus on muscle stimulation as well as creating satellite muscles in the body itself.
The idea is that muscle cells are like little balloons, so if you increase the balloon size of the cells your muscles will also grow in size and strength while also helping burn fat, a win win situation. The problem is that anyone has a preset, certain certain amount of nuclei within his/her cells that prevents cell expansion under normal, standard stimulation, unless a particular stress is applied in order to increase this amount of nuclei.
Satellite cells are particular muscle helper cells that kick in only when highly stressed beyond regular failure of traditional weight training. Ben Pakulski likens the effect as your muscle being pumped and growing all the time, specifically at rest after your workouts, rather just being temporarily gorged.
This particular, welcome effect, is the result of a specific kind of hard core training designed to achieve the greatest Time Under Tension stress in the shortest possible time, allegedly leading to unprecedented and fast muscle gains.
This high intensity technique revolves around extending your regular set into a 4 minute agonizing struggle against fatigue and pain by adding a static stretching posture while you keeping hold of the weight and contracting the antagonist muscle, instead of dropping it and resting as normal. After a certain amount of seconds (that feels very long) in the stretched position, you drop the start up weight for a lighter one and repeat the process, then drop again and repeat for up to a total of 4 minutes. Basically it is a sort of drop set with the addition of isometric static holds in between drops, intra-set stretching so to speak, and very, very taxing. You only need to do this ONCE.
Ben Pakulsky showcases a handy demonstration video for one particular muscle group, but it stresses that each muscle group is different and requires specific, ancillary and targeted techniques for best effect. No muscle group is the same and results will be skewed if the very same technique for one specific muscle is applied exactly for all muscle groups. The net result is a pump that lasts forever and more importantly that causes an increase in cell size, hence a fast increase in mass.
This highly targeted techniques causes your muscles to go in hyper recovery, that is to compensate with growth at a faster rate caused by the production of myo-satellite helper cells. An added benefits and a welcome side effect of this particular method of training is that because your body muscles are forced to expand and grow in overdrive, they also start using body fat as fuel rather than just your meals, allegedly burning 90% of fat while resting.
You have to start from little stretching softly, and do more and more for the next stretching. You will be able to feel your muscle stretch, and then you will be able to stretch more. Scientifically, the stretching process is exercised your muscle and give it more change to work out just like it is explain in mi40x review bodybuilding. The worked out muscle will build itself until it gain more mass. You can practice CEP between you exercise, besides it gains your muscle mass 200% more effective than other kind of method, it is also prepared your body to move. It will help the muscle to prepare facing the hard exercise.
Video Clips -
All in all you can find 18 video clips in the Mi40x program where Ben
Pakulski shows you exactly how to do the Mi40x workouts. The videos are
really informative and detailed.
7-Day Detox Diet Plan - This detoxification plan is recommended by Ben Pakulski in order to improve and enhance nutritional absorption in the beginning of the workout program.
The 7-Day Primer Phase - Before you can actually start with the Mi40X workout program itself, you first need to go through the 7-day primer phase. This prepares the central nervous system for the Mi40x workouts and helps prepare the muscles for rapid muscle growth.
The Application Guide for CEP - In this guide Ben shows how to utilize the satellite cell choosing procedure and how to benefit from this in terms of muscle growth.
Training Blueprint of Cell Expansion Protocol - This blueprint uses scientifically verified solutions of the program to help muscel development. This includes intra-set stretching out, period under tension and NOS-X.
Exercise Guide - This is a very important part of the whole program because it contains the exercise execution guide that contains all the information you need about the exercises. It is in pdf format which makes it easy to download and for usage on any device.
Also, in the original program the Mass Intentions indicated a voluntary technique to increase the stress on muscles which consisted of exerting a torque force on the bar while pushing or pulling. This meant pushing inward with your hand on the bar while pushing up in a bench press at the same time, for example, or pushing outward on the bar while pulling down on a lat machine. The extra torque generated would generate an incredible stress and pump, leading to greater and faster muscle gains even though all of your typical resistance for a given exercise would have to be drastically reduced. This is in short the old MI40 Mass Intention principle, you can find a thorough description and review of the old program here.Does MI40 Xtreme work?

What is Cell Expansion Protocol?
CEP is a new training protocol introduced by Ben Pakulski which has been approved scientifically. It is a unique way to significantly improve body ability to build muscle mass. CEP is a method which you can add on to your muscle building sets. It is a simple technique that is requires your muscle to feel tension. For the beginners you need to work in the stretched position within 20 – 30 seconds. While the advanced trainers need at least 30 seconds to stretch out.
The idea is that muscle cells are like little balloons, so if you increase the balloon size of the cells your muscles will also grow in size and strength while also helping burn fat, a win win situation. The problem is that anyone has a preset, certain certain amount of nuclei within his/her cells that prevents cell expansion under normal, standard stimulation, unless a particular stress is applied in order to increase this amount of nuclei.
how it works?
What happens in these circumstances is that when an appropriate and specific stimulus is applied to your muscles, your body starts producing myo-satellite cells to repair muscle damage, leading to rapid and constant muscle mass gains.Satellite cells are particular muscle helper cells that kick in only when highly stressed beyond regular failure of traditional weight training. Ben Pakulski likens the effect as your muscle being pumped and growing all the time, specifically at rest after your workouts, rather just being temporarily gorged.
This particular, welcome effect, is the result of a specific kind of hard core training designed to achieve the greatest Time Under Tension stress in the shortest possible time, allegedly leading to unprecedented and fast muscle gains.

How to practice?
If you want to practice CEP, you need to do the regular static stretching. Stretching between the exercise is not only to build you muscle, but also to avoid some injury; like cramp. Do the various degree of stretching until you feel some stretch in your muscle, especially around the join. Be careful, you cannot stretch too hard in all of sudden, it may get you some pain especially in the join.You have to start from little stretching softly, and do more and more for the next stretching. You will be able to feel your muscle stretch, and then you will be able to stretch more. Scientifically, the stretching process is exercised your muscle and give it more change to work out just like it is explain in mi40x review bodybuilding.

How Does MI40X Differ From The Original MI40?
The original MI40 program, already very successful, employed for the first time the concept of Mass Intentions coupled with the “magical" number 40 intended as a the structural key to the program settings and permeating all aspects of training, which meant 40 second set duration, 40 second rests, 40 minute workouts sets, 4 weight drops on the last set and so on, hence the name MI40.Scientific Study About The Effects of Mi40x!
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of MI40-Xtreme (MI40X) on skeletal muscle hypertrophy, lean body mass,strength and power in resistance trained athletes.
Subjects trained 3 days per week for 40daysas a part of a daily undulating periodized resistance training program. The training volume was matched. Ultrasonography determined muscle thickness, dual emission x-ray absorptiometry, and bench press and leg press strength were recorded during days 0 and 40.
Results
An ANOVA model was used to measure group, time, and group by time interactions. If any main effects were observed, a Tukey post-hoc was employed to locate where differences occurred. Significant condition by time effects were observed in which lean body mass, muscle mass, strength and power all increased and fat mass decreased.CLICK HERE to read the study!
What Are The Benefits Of The MI40X 2.0 Program?
Here is what we think are the main advantages in using this program:- It is time saving, the CEP principle takes only 4 minutes to implement at the end of the set, extending the TUT, time under tension, thus stressing the muscle to the limit in the shortest possible time.
- It is very effective on building muscle fast – it goes hand in hand with the time saving that the CEP technique blasts mass growth to the roof.
- No need for bulking and cutting - This high stress protocol causes your muscles not just to grow but also to use your fat storage as fuel. This means getting ripped and big at the same time, no need for bulking and cutting.
- It is for everyone, man and women, young and older, and even though the full technique is for advanced, the program offers beginner and intermediate variations that are carefully described and demonstrated in the videos by Ben himself.
- It has a back up of a scientific study with results to show for, plus the expertize of Ben Pakulski himself on his clients. The test was conducted on a random group of people.
- It is safe as long as you strictly adhere to the blueprint and follow the very important Primer Phase that must not be skipped.
Program Pros
- Very effective for building muscle mass fast
- Very effective for burning fat at the same time
- Time saving, short workouts
- Thorough and accurate program in multimedia format
- Instantly available, no need for shipping
- Scientific study back up
- Easy to use and implement as long as you stick to the manuals and videos to the letter
- 60 day money back guarantee
Program Cons
- Very demanding technique. For some it may be too much, though for others may be enjoyable
- Not flexible – the workouts require a precise schedule through the week, even though they are very short.
- You cannot jump into the full blueprint immediately, you need first to prime your body for at least a week to prepare it to the unusually demanding tasks ahead.
The above average muscle gains also promote fat loss simultaneously, eliminating bulking and cutting, and resulting in top physical condition in less time. It is therefore suitable to anyone as long as the blueprint is followed to the letter, including the all important Primer Phase.
